Description And Directions

  • Site Description: The area has a network of winter routes and a chain of unique, winter, day-use shelters for all ages and families who would enjoy self-guided snowshoeing, cross-country skiing or backcountry ski touring. In summer, there is hiking, mountain biking, watching wildlife, walking a dog or taking a horseback ride on summer trails. In winter, the unique day-use shelters are a fine destination to plan to visit, offering warmth and shelter from the weather or a break with lunch or a warm drink. Some of the day-use shelters are very near and easily accessible from the trailhead; others are further away and can provide a more challenging adventure. Dogs are allowed on the winter trails, which are not "groomed". In summer season, you can enjoy the area on foot, mountain bike, and horseback using the extensive system of mountain bike trails and hikes in the Recreation. Visit the Kootenay Columbia Trails Society?s website for maps. For more information on the Recreation Site please visit http://www.rosslandrange.org/
